Bombardier announced that a customer, which requested to remain unidentified at this time, has signed a firm order for 24 CRJ900 NextGen regional jets. Based on the list price for the CRJ900 NextGen aircraft, the firm order is valued at approximately $1.14bn.
The CRJ has seen its fuel burn improved 5.5% and remains the lowest weight aircraft in its class. While the CRJ1000 has proven popular outside the USA, the CRJ900 has proven popular within the US market because it falls easily inside the scope clause restriction for regional carriers.
